OPRA 48-line Distribution Going Live!

Monday, May 2nd, 2011

This morning OPRA, the Options Price Reporting Authority, is changing their distribution from a 24-line multicast feed to a 48-line feed to make it a little easier to balance the load and allow for receivers like us to actually do something with the data we get. So this morning when I got in I changed all the configuration data from the 24-line set-up to the new 48-line set-up. In truth, I'd had the configuration for a while, I just didn't update the config files as I didn't need them. Today is the first day I need them, so they'll be live and ready for me.

Progress... there's no stopping it.
